Description

Make Zandronum be able to, from the in-game menu, read and display (with a scrollbar) the README.txt or README.md file from a wad/pk3.

Notes
(0024560) Fused (reporter) 2025-08-07 06:37	I would prefer we get better control of the menu and combine it with lump reading to manually parse and display the README.
